Assemble the Tiramisu
Dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture for about 1-2 seconds, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy. Layer half of the soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a 9x13 inch dish. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers.

Add another layer of soaked ladyfingers on top of the mascarpone mixture and then spread the remaining mascarpone mixture over the top.
